BLCGA Championship - Kelso 16/17th August

 This weekend sees our Championship taking place at Kelso GC on Sat 16th and Sun 17th Aug.

The first round kicks off at 08.40am on Saturday with the qualifiers all vying for a place in the quarter finals at 1pm.
Sunday is the Semi Finals at 9am with the winners competing in the Final at 1pm.
Can anyone stop Leanne Wilson winning her 3rd Championship on the trot on home soil?

The Bronze Championship also takes place on Sunday with the ladies teeing off from 9.30 and playing a Stableford. Defending Champion Fiona Melrose is in the draw looking to take the silverware home again.

Light snacks will be available on the day in the clubhouse.

It would be great to see people out to support the players over the course of the 2 days, with a high standard of golf sure to be on display.

Leanne and Fiona please remember and bring the trophies back at the weekend.

I look forward to seeing everyone at the weekend, battling it out to become the respective Champions. Good luck to all competitiors.

Helen Cuthbertson

 We are deeply saddened to hear of the recent passing of past Captain Helen Cuthbertson. Helen was very passionate about her golf which showed in the positions she held.

Helen's positions included:
Border Ladies Captain 1996/97
Border Ladies President 2004-06
SLGA board 2007-11

Our thoughts are with Joyce and Helen's family at this difficult time.

Jenny Cleghorn results 13th April

 Many thanks to everyone that played in our opening competition of the season. It was great to see so many couples out playing with some excellent scores coming in.

A big thank you to Catherine Renton and Linda Ovens for manning the bar and providing the cakes and tray bakes, both put in a very long shift which was greatly appreciated. Thanks to St Boswells for hosting this again, it's always good to start the season down by the river. The course was looking good for this time of the year but like all our courses the greens were crying out for rain.

Thanks also to my Committee for assisting with desk duty and providing the rolls, all money taken for the rolls has been added to the donation box, £131.78 will be going to the Margaret Kerr Unit at the BGH.

Silver

1st A Vine & R Wigmore 69

Bronze 

1st L Ker & J Allan 65 (BIH from 3 couples)

There was only 5 2's with Julie Birdsall and Kirsty Baird having 2!! Each couple will receive £30 with Julie and Kirsty getting £60.

Full results have been attached, with the top 5 in both divisions in the prize money. Well done everybody.

Our next event is the Joint TexMex with the Border Seniors at Kelso on Sunday 27th April.

Great to see everybody today, hopefully see you again in a couple of weeks.
